ABSTRACT:
A plurality of lens groups are movable in the direction of an optical axis. A plurality of motors are provided for the lens groups, respectively, so as to drive the lens groups. A focusing distance detector detects the position of a lens group which is one of the lens groups and which is changed in position in accordance with a change in the focusing distance, and outputs focusing distance data in accordance with the data representing the detected position of the lens group. A lens position detector detects the positions of the lens groups other than the lens group. A memory stores positional relationships between the predetermined lens group and the other lens groups. A zooming operation member is used for commanding a zooming operation. A driving controller actuates that motor which corresponds to the lens group in accordance with the zooming operation in such a manner that the motor is driven for a driving distance determined on the basis of the focusing distance data, calculates driving distances of the other lens groups in accordance with the positions detected by the lens position detector and with the positional relationships stored in the memory being referred to, and then controls the motors which correspond to the other lens groups in accordance with the calculated driving distances.
